Favorite Things To Sip On!



Recommended Posts

I love me some apple juice. It's been on my "No" list for so long .. calories and carbs when I try not to drink any calories. I've been indulging lately because of my liquid diet, but I'm sure, soon I'll have to ditch the apples in favor of some more Atkins friendly drinks. :)

hmmmm, by the time I get my "breakfast" Protein finished, it's "lunch"...and well right now I'm 1/2 finished with the "dinner" one (16oz each)....this evening will be a Miralax coctail, lol! That's 55 ounces of liquid a day...that's cool, right? oh, and none are my favorite...just tolerable...hope it's okay, that my protiens are going in sippery slow...

I mix a full day's worth of Protein in the morning and drink on it all day. That way I'm sure I got it all in and it makes it not as bad. (Mostly because I can't quite take a whole serving (6oz) in one shot and if I mix one serving at a time I'll push it until I drink it (empty plate syndrome has followed me to liquids). I use a little 1 oz hurricane/fancy cup and pour the shake into it. So I can mentally finish the glass without having to finish the mixer.

Something tasty to add to your shakes is some instant coffee. You get kind of a latte/mocha going depending on your shake flavor (vanilla/chocolate) .. put it in a blender with some ice and you have a frappe :)

I've finally discovered no sugar added frozen fruit pops. Given I've been drinking fruit punch and grape drinks for weeks now...plus the Protein shakes...having a tangerine pop was heaven. I missed Citrus.

Diluted Minute Maid low-cal orange juice. I can't live without it and by the time it's diluted, it's only 25 calories a glass- plus it has calcium! Now if only I could find a non-creamy, orange flavored Protein to add to it!

I get the 32 oz Power-Ade Zero's. I drink one a day, and with my other drinks I know I'm over 64 oz's. I still have an aversion to drinking Water at 5 1/2 months post-op for some reason.

I can drink a glass of 3/4 Water and 1/4 of diet cranberry or diet cran grape. Diet snapple green tea is nice and I brew up Decaf tea and pour it over crushed ice with a half pack of Splenda.

When I need a " citrus" fix I make the sunrise orange crystal light and let it get to slushy point in the freezer.

Decaf hot tea with milk is my absolute fav. I can't drink cold stuff since surgery. It just doesn't go down well :-(

I have been craving apple juice. I have been having trouble getting my liquids in so some watered down(melted ice) has been great at helping get my liquids in.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
